Cowslips behind the wire (HFF everyone)

Cowslips behind the wire (HFF everyone)
HFF 13/2/2022

The location is the site of the now partially closed Forestry England, Wykeham Nursery. Although some of the buildings are still in use, the production of sapling trees from seedlings has ceased. A small number of staff have been retained for other forestry work. I shall miss watching the process of preparing the ground, planting out the seedling and eventually gathering up the saplings for distribution to various forestry plantations around the north of England and south of Scotland.

Thanks very much for your visit Pam. I have never seen so many together before! I was told by one of the Forestry employees that they were not planted, so have established themselves naturedly.

Thanks for your Carol.

The nursey itself is fully closed, the only work the very few Forestry employees are doing is in the forest itself. The land that the nursey is on, is I think, owned by a local estate. I have no idea what will happen to it, perhaps used for agriculture or forestry, who knows. How about a native species woodland to help with climate chance!

Enjoy your day, Doug
